Value Collection BD3105 Bi-metal Jigsaw Blade 18 Tpi

Product Description

The VALUE COLLECTION BD3105 is a bi-metal jigsaw blade designed for general-purpose cutting tasks in trade and shop environments. Running at 18 teeth per inch (TPI), this blade delivers fine, controlled cuts in metal, plastic, and similar materials. The bi-metal construction combines a high-speed steel tooth edge with a flexible alloy steel body, giving the blade resistance to breakage under demanding cutting conditions. At 3 inches in length and 0.035 inches thick, it fits compact cutting envelopes where a standard full-size blade would be impractical. Licensed tradespeople, fabricators, and maintenance technicians are the typical end users for this blade type.

This blade is suited for detailed or contour work where a finer tooth pitch is needed to reduce tear-out and maintain cut quality. The milled tooth set provides consistent tooth geometry across the cutting edge. The U-shank mount is a universal fitment style compatible with a wide range of jigsaw models from multiple manufacturers. Applications include cutting thin sheet metal, conduit, plastic panels, and similar materials in HVAC, electrical, and general mechanical service work.
